Remove front seat cover - back?

Anyone have an idea how to remove the vinyl covered seat back cover. Had problem with open windows during a rainstorm (see other post) and everything is basically dry but the backrest seems to still be a little damp. Want to remove the cover to dry behind the seat cover.

There are two plastic plugs at the bottom ,remove these and the back just slides down .The plastic plugs are very hard to remove, so order some from your dealer then just break the old ones off ..
I've done this a few times now as i have fitted rear screens in both my X's

Didn't work out that way - There are two spring clips at the top and two L shaped clips out of metal on the bottom. I used a OEM Trim tool to pop the clips at the top and the piece lifts bottom to top. Didn't break anything and it went back in reverse - then press at the top it will reclip itself and fit tightly to the seat.
